Losing my add-ons
After a reinstall of Firefox I lost all my add-ons. This gave me a noticeable speed improvement, so I decided to reinstall only those add-ons I really couldn't live without. Part of my strategy was to replace add-ons with bookmarklets whenever possible. I'm back to 5 add-ons now:
- Delicious Bookmarks
Real integration with a browser feature. Bookmarklets work, but not as beautifully as this add-on. - Dictionary Switcher
- Dutch Dictionary (Woordenboek Nederlands)
It switches the spelling checker between various languages. I write both Dutch and English texts daily, so these are a big help. Actually I houldn't count the dictionary as an add-on, but Firefox does. - Firebug
- Web Developer
I'm a web developer, I just need these.
The 2 bookmarklets I use are "Post to Evernote" and "Share on Posterous". Don't find myself missing much, and I've seriously lost some add-on weight with this setup.
